Hi, Eric:

I noticed that: # service libvirtd status libvirtd dead but pid file exists.

I operated VMs(like create, edit, delte) normally for a second, but the libvirtd on host was dead.

Usually a disappearing libvirtd is a sign of a bug; at this point, I suggest seeing if you can reproduce it with 0.9.13, as there have been several fixes for known libvirtd crashers in the meantime.

I checked the libvirtd.log but didn't find any useful information. so I want to know what can cause the problem?

another question: I found the message in /var/log/message like "libvirtd: Could not find keytab file: /etc/libvirt/krb5.tab: Permission denied." what is going wrong?

I'm not sure about this one; but you may want to browse through http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Troubleshooting to see if it has any hints, and/or add a page to that wiki if you can determine what it was.

my libvirt version: 0.9.8.

thanks.
